MANCHESTER BROTHERHOOD 
The Manchester Brotherhood held 
its semi-monthly meeting in the 
Vestry of the Baptist church, Mon- 
day, Aprilii9. Rev As AC Forshee 
of Dorchester gave a very interesting 
lecture, illustrated by the stereop- 
ticon. His subject was “The Philip-° 
pines.” The pictures were exceed- 
ingly beautiful and gave one a splen- 
did idea of that country. As Mr. For- 
shee had spent several years on these 
islands he proved to be a very inter- 
esting lecturer. 
The islands are volcanic in nature, 
said the speaker in his introductory 
remarks. They were once below the 
sea level. Coral formation is found 
on high mountains. All the islands 
are more or less mountairious. There 
are also large number of earthquakes 
and active volcanoes. Because of the 
rich volcanic soil, warm climaté and 
large per cent. of rainfall the vege- 
tation is very thick. 
The non-Christian peoples of the 
Philippine Islands constitute approx- 
imately an eight of the entire popu- 
lation of the islands.’ Since the 
United States government has come 
in possession of these islands a great 
deal has been done in the way of 
education and industry. 
Owing to the warm 
people wear very little. They are a 
lazy light-hearted people. As nature 
provides them with nearly everything 
—food and clothing—they accquire 
this lazy attitude. Their houses are 
usually built of bamboo and thatched 
with cocoanut leaves or leaves of 
other large plants and trees. Hemp 
climate the 
is used a great deal for clothing 
when other fabrics are not obtain- 
able. 
This government has done a great 
deal towards educating the people of 
that country. Schools have been 
cstablished and agriculture has taken 
a remarkable stride, as well as other 
industries. Rice, corn, sugar-cane 
and bananas are the principal prod- 
ucts. Navigation has also been per- 
fected, and good roads have been 
built. The islands are self-support- 
ing. 
Rev. Mr. Forshee devoted little 
time to explanation of the govern- 
ment of that country. The people are 
not fitted to govern themselves and it 
will require at least another genera- 
tion before they will be amply fit to 
resume this responsibility. 
From the start the speaker held 
the close attention of his audience, 
and all present greatly enjoyed the 
illustrations which he had’ shown 
them. Rev. Mr. Warner operated the 
stereopticon. 
The usual collation was served at 
the close of the meeting. The at- 
tendance was seventy-five—a marked 
increase over a year ago. On Mon- 
day, May 2, Roger W. Babson of 
Wellesley Hills will be the speaker. 
Ae ATRVOR ODES 
It has been some years since such 
a remarkably successful «farce has 
been seen in Boston as “A Pair of 
Sixes,” which begins its 18th won- 
derful week at the Wilbur Theatre, 
Boston, next Monday, April 26th.

“Tur Law or THe LAND” 
“The Law of the Land” has made 
a tremendous sensation at the Ma- 
jectic Theatre, and will enter upon 
its. second big week at this house 
next Monday, April 26th. Ever- 
body seems to agree that George 
Broadhurst has never sent to Boston 
such a genuinely vital and human 
play as this. It is a play once seen 
will make you wish to see it again. 
It is full of thrills and tears and 
laughs. There are tears that end in 
a laugh, and laughs that end in tears. 
The play is said to be a master- 
piece in construction, and superbly 
acted. Certainly (fommecimocws ce 
Third Degree” has a play made so 
profound an impression upon those 
who are interested in social condi- 
tions of today. As in other recent 
successful plays the piece has a pal- 
pitation with every emotion that 
sweeps its cyclonic way across the 
stage. As a drama, it is vital and 
human. It is the stark tragedy of 
souls that have been stripped of con- 
ventions of every-day life, and that 
stand forth as naked as on the day 
when man and woman and love were 
created. 
“TonicHt’s THE NIGHT” 
“It’s so different,” is what they all 
say of “Tonight’s the Night,” the big 
musical comedy success as presented 
so sucessfully at the Shubert 
Theatre, Boston, where the fourth 
week of its engagement begins next 
Monday, April 26th. It is so en- 
tirely in contrast to the customary 
American brand of musical comedy 
that it is positively refreshing. 
Local theatregoers have never be- 
fore had an opportunity of seeing the 
London Gaiety Company in a typical 
London Gaiety musical comedy with- 
out going to the world metropolis for 
that | purpose. Only the depfessed 
theatrical conditions prevailing in 
London rendered possible its presen- 
tation in America by this world-f1- 
mous company of entertainers. 
The daintiness, delicate charm and 
essential politeness which always 
characterize Gaiety productions and 
which has never been successfully 
reproduced in American presentations 
of Gaiety pieces, are in evidence in 
this production.
